Table of contents

DESCRIPTION

The module r.green.gshp computes the Ground Source Heat Pump potential.
It is composed of several programs considering different limits (e.g. theoretical, planning, technical, economic/finacial constraints).
The module r.green.gshp consists of the following different parts:

- r.green.gshp.theoretical
[status: testing] calculates for each single Borehole Heat Exchanger (BHE) the maximum power/energy potential, assessed through the G.POT method.

- r.green.gshp.planning
[status: not implemented yet] consider legal, ecological constraints and the user's recommendations to plan the use of the GSHP system

- r.green.gshp.technical
[status: testing] calculates the length of a BHE following the ASHRAE methodology.

- r.green.gshp.financial
[status: not implemented yet] computes the economic and financial feasibility of the ground source heat plants
